Unfortunately like a few other people have said in the reviews, I had two oysters on Sunday afternoon and by Monday early morning I was vomiting and on the toilet all night.I know it was the oysters as my girlfriend didn’t have any and we ate the same food for weekend and MondayObviously something not right about the oysters.Should be a sign at least pointing out the risks of eating oysters that aren’t right !

Ate 2 Oysters. From here the 3 days ago and got bad food poisoning this was the only thing I ate that would have made me as violently sick this place should be shut down ,selling food that can kill people !!!!!!!!!

I was there last Saturday with some friends. Those of us who ate oysters got really sick (vomiting, diarrhoea, fever, and so on) for the following 2 days, with clear signs of food poisoning. And we only ate 1 or 2 oysters each. I think this place should improve their health and safety policy, as this can be very dangerous.

Amazing local seafood right on the seafront. We got the cod and chips and local rock oysters. All beautifully fresh and delicious. There is also an excellent local beer selection available on tap including an oyster stout.

For such an affluent and trendy place I am surprised that there are no gluten free options at this place. Nevertheless, my husband went elsewhere to get something gf and I ordered cod and chips. The cod was nice but very small and the chips were not fresh, they were frozen rubbish. Such a shame as I’d like less chips but at least be fresh potatoes. Staff were unhelpful when I asked about gf and the guy looked at me like I’d landed from space.

Good fresh oysters, the service boy is good. I only had two oysters, I liked to have a large fish, but I did not as he told me that is frozen fish not fresh one, so I gave up. I appreciated his honesty! Well done!

Nowhere better to have an oyster and a beer. The best oyster I've ever had, served by friendly, knowledgeable staff.
